Drop Scones or Biscuits

Makes 14 to 16 scones or biscuits

2 cups flour (half unbleached white flour and/or half whole wheat pastry flour)
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/4 cups reduced-fat soymilk mixed with 1 Tbsp. lemon juice

Preheat oven to 4000F.

Mix the dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. Stir in soymilk mixture with a fork. Stir quickly to moisten the dry ingredients. Drop the mixture by large spoonfuls onto lightly greased or non-stick cookie sheets, far enough apart so they don't touch. Smooth the tops a bit with wet fingers, and sprinkle with sugar, caraway seeds, sesame seeds, or poppy seeds, if you like.

Bake in a 4000F oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom and beginning to color on the top. Serve immediately, if possible.

Variation: For herbal biscuits, add 1/4 tsp. pepper, 1/2 tsp. minced garlic, 1 Tbsp. minced fresh basil, 2 Tbsp. minced fresh chives, and 1 tsp. minced fresh oregano, thyme, or marjoram to the dry mixture.

Delicious Orange Pancakes

Makes about 24 four-inch pancakes
(or 3-4 dozen small pancakes)

1 1/4 cups unbleached white flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 cup reduced-fat soymilk powder or low-fat soy flour (opt.)
4 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 ½ cup apple juice
1 ½ cup orange juice

In a large bowl, mix together flour, soy powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. When the dry ingredients are well-combined, stir in fruit juices. Mix briefly-lumps are okay.

Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet (or a heavy skillet lightly greased with an oiled cloth) over high heat until it is hot; then turn it down to medium high. Spoon the batter onto the pan making 2"-4" (silver dollar) pancakes. When the tops are bubbly, turn them over carefully and cook until the under side is golden and the middle is cooked (you can spread apart one pancake using a fork to test). Serve immediately with maple syrup or other toppings.

  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Sliced bread (about 6 slices)
